Former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has formally requested a new passport and national ID from the Bangladesh embassy in New Delhi to return to her country. This is her first official contact with the embassy since seeking refuge in India after violent protests in August 2024. She plans to surrender in court in December despite a death sentence in absentia related to the 2024 protests, potentially escalating political tensions.
